So I have a present for you. Okay. I have an Italian Russian cake to exchange if you want.
Oh I'd love to. I also have something for you as well. It's um our pizza sliced
cheese version of the MRE for the Americans. Oh perfect. So here we go let's see. So with
American MREs we have a kind of a water-based system to heat them up. It comes with handy
instructions here. What you're going to do, you're going to take our water and it doesn't have to be
hot. We're going to go in here and we're going to fill it up with black wine. It reacts with the
heater inside. I typically wait about like three minutes but we can honestly this one
it's kind of exciting. Instead of pizza I prefer to call it like toast. Like toast yeah. Good.
Okay here we have a cracker. Chunky peanut butter. I like a lot.
Spread like that. How like universal is everybody loves the peanut butter and the crackers.
Good. I like. This is uh spicy. Yeah the jalapeno cashews I think. They're pretty good.
After this I need a lot of water. I drink like that. Yeah you just just peel open the top and
you can just. Thank you very much. Here is the 24-hour combat ration. Today we show you there
are three boxes. One is for breakfast, one is for lunch and the last one is for supper. Perfect.
Okay let's see this. Here we have the breakfast and you can open like this
and there are a lot of accessories inside.
For brush the teeth. Oh my gosh okay. Comes with three toothbrushes and a teeny tiny toothpaste.
Napkin with some disposal spoon. You have something to sanitize the water. You have salt,
instant coffee. You have a milk condensate. Oh wow okay. Chocolate. Oh my gosh there's a lot.
Something for your teeth to clean and here is we have a little stuff to use it to make the
other cans that are inside the other box. For lunch here we have these cans with typically
Italian main dishes in general and of course to eat like that in the cold is not good but
if you make it warm you you can put like that. That's actually pretty good. Then the lunch you
can change. For example here soup. Oh nice. Beans and pasta. That looks really that sounds
actually really good. And then we have okay chicken. The chicken and jelly. Yes and another
bar. Okay let's do the chicken and jelly. It's not it's not bad it's just it's like a weird
a weird texture. This is a Macedonia the mix of fruit.
But I really like the fruit cup. I really like the the fact that it comes with candies and the
toothbrush and toothpaste. That's pretty cool. Thank you.
That's it for today. I hope you liked this video and if you haven't done it yet
